Henry Pestka was more than
just a building chairman—although
that's what it says on the corner-
stone of Ahavas Israel Synagogue.
which only recently was completed
and dedicated in Grand Rapids
with the parade of Torah scrolls.
Pestka, who builds and develops
office buildings, apartment com-
plexes and shopping centers, saved
his congregation $500,000 by direct.
ing his efforts, full-time, to the
construction of Ahavas Israel.
The $1,000,000 modern structure
includes offices, a gift shop, con-
ference rooms, library, educational
rooms, a large kitchen and audi•
torium. Automatic folding doors
separate the sanctuary from the
auditorium, but when opened per-
mit for double the seating, par-
ticularly during High Holy Days.
The holidays were Pestka's
target date for completion. Al-
though the congregation had
been talking of a new synagogue
for more than 10 years, it took
Pestka less than a year to com-
plete his project.
He saved the congregation funds
by not having to pay the general
contractor's fee and obtaining
good prices from subcontractors
and suppliers with whom he has
had past dealings.
Even the architect, VanWienen
and Postema, was a business asso-
ciate. The plans were approved by
the building committee, although
Pestak earlier had told the mem-

P.E.N. Club Convention
Defeats Arab Measure
JERUSALEM—Back from a con-
vention of the P.E.N. Club in
Seoul, Israeli members reported
they were warmly received by the
South Koreans, who identify with
Israel, but they had to work hard
to thwart an attempt by a Leba-
nese delegate to pass an anti-
Israel resolution.
According to writers Hanoch
Partov and Haim Guri, who rep-
resented the Israel P.E.N. Club
at the meeting, the sole Arab
delegate, Ca mille Aboussaoun,
proposed that an inquiry mission
be sent to Israel and Lebanon to
study the status of Arab writers
there.
Instead, the convention decided
to instruct the P.E.N. secretary-
general to investigate Ara b
charges of Israeli suppression of
Arab culture under her admin-
istration. The P.E.N. executive is
to receive a report in October.

ing else, it is a fine subject for
speculation.—William Ilazlitt
